A device may receive location data identifying a location of a network repeater and an identifier of a base station serving the network repeater, and may identify, based on the identifier of the base station, a first set of gNodeBs anchored to the base station. The device may identify, based on the location data, a second set of gNodeBs from a data structure, and may compare the first set of gNodeBs and the second set of gNodeBs to determine a list of gNodeBs included in the first set of gNodeBs and the second set of gNodeBs. The device may rank the list of gNodeBs, based on coverage projection recommendations, to generate a ranked list of gNodeBs, and may receive, from the data structure, configuration parameters for the ranked list of gNodeBs. The device may provide the configuration parameters for the ranked list of gNodeBs to the network repeater.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
3. The method of claim 1, wherein the base station includes one of a Long Term Evolution base station or a 5G base station.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the configuration parameters include a band of operation associated with the ranked list of gNodeBs.
11. The device of claim 7, wherein the network repeater includes a millimeter wave device.
12. The device of claim 7, wherein the network repeater automatically attaches to the base station, when powered on and based on a proximity between the network repeater and the base station.
